The US government has sold 4.45 million shares of Anthropic that were seized from FTX, generating about $627 million, according to an Odaily report citing BeInCrypto. The proceeds are set to be used to repay FTX creditors, tying the sale directly to the ongoing recovery process tied to the collapsed exchange.
Anthropic’s S-1 filing shows the shares were resold to nine buyers. Based on the valuation tied to Anthropic’s planned Nasdaq listing under the ticker ANT, the same block of shares is currently valued at about $3.94 billion. That gap highlights how much the stake’s paper value has risen relative to the amount realized in the government sale.
No additional details were provided in the brief on the identities of the buyers or the timing of the transactions beyond what was disclosed in the filing and cited report.
